READING GUIDE

Reading example: -9.0 E -03 = -9.0 x 10-3 The following display rules shall apply: - When the result of the calculation of the inventory is zero, then the zero value is displayed. - All the values, except those which are zero, will be expressed with 3 significant digits. - For each inventory flow, the values to justify to at least 99.9 per cent the value of the "total" column are displayed; the others, except those which are zero, are hidden. Note: N/A: non applicable "Unspecified metals": the flow of this line must not be cumulated with flow lines specific to each one of the metals. "Recovered materials": this includes the waste matter of lines retrieved which are reintroduced into the manufacturing cycle as raw materials.

Comments relating to the consumption of natural energy resources and to the energy indicators:

The use of recycled cullet reduces the energy consumption of the production phase. The glass mineral wool is a flexible product that can be compressed in packaging which has the result of optimising the quantities transported, reducing the number of rotations and reducing the amount of raw material for the packaging. The energy indicators must be used with caution because they add the energies of different origin which do not have the same environmental impacts (Preferably refer to the elementary flows).

Comments relating to water consumption (samples):

During the "production" phase a cooling water and process recycling and treatment plant enables industrial water not to be discharged (Evaporation within the process). Mineral glass wool does not use water during its implementation, nor during its life in work, or at the end of its life. The consumption of water mainly comes from the water consumed for the production of the bonding agent and for electricity production (evaporation of water to cool the nuclear power plants).

Comments relating to the consumption of energy and recovered materials:

Reduction of the materials consumed by the input of recycled materials. During the life in work no material is retrieved before de-constructing the work because the TL of the insulation is at least 50 years or the life of the work. In production, the material from manufacturing discharges are reintroduced into the process; they are used as raw material input. The incorporation of recycled cullet in the mixture of raw materials reduces the consumption of new materials and the energy consumption of the production process. The packaging and coating materials partly comprise recycled materials.

NOTE: Concerning radioactive emissions, this table should be completed as soon as the transposition of the European directive Euratom on the radioactive emissions is published.

Comments relating to emissions in the air:

The production site is subject to the legislation on classified installations and is regularly checked by the competent authorities. The operating conditions are governed by the European directives in force. Emissions into the atmosphere are treated and controlled. The choice of the "oxy-fuel" fusion technique greatly reduces nitrogen oxide emissions.

Comments on emissions in water:

On the site of production, the use of waters is based on a principle of internal loop; there is no discharges of industrial water in the natural environment. Sanitary water is either treated in a sewage plant before discharge or directed to a collective treatment station. These measurements contribute locally to maintaining the quality of the water.

Additional Information relating to the implementation Since 1993, the industrialists of the FILMM shall notify users with a list of recommendations to be met when implementing their products: the pictograms on the packaging, the voluntary safety data declarations (drafted in accordance with the REACH regulation- available on request from the manufacturers).

These precautions are summarised in the form of texts and pictograms on the packaging of the products of FILMM manufacturers:

Additional information relating to fibres of manufactured mineral wool

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified the glass, rock and slag mineral wool fibres in group 3: "cannot be classified for its carcinogenicity to humans". This classification results from the evaluation of recent scientific and medical publications carried out by 19 international experts. The details are available on the website of the IARC (_www.iarc.fr_).

Mineral wool fibres are also exempt from the carcinogenic classification according to European directive 97/69/EC transposed into French law by the decree of 28 August 1998. They have in effect successfully passed the tests provided for by this directive and their bio-persistence is below the values defined in note "Q" of this text. This exemption is certified by the European Certification Board (EUCEB, _www.euceb.org_).

5. OTHER CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE PRODUCT INCLUDING IN RELATION TO CONCERNS OF

THE ECO-MANAGEMENT OF THE BUILDING, ECONOMY AND OVERALL ENVIRONMENTAL

POLICY

5.1 Eco-management of the building

5.1.1 Energy Management

The installation of the product in a work creates an avoidance of energy. The main characteristic involved for the evaluation of the eco-management of the building is thermal resistance. The thermal resistance of the product is equal to 2.95 K.m2./W.

5.1.2 Water Management

N.A.

5.1.3 Service and maintenance

The lifespan of mineral wool is that of the work where it is very often integrated in the structural work. It does not require replacement or maintenance.

5.2 Economic concern

The energy policy deployed in France since 1973 has allowed it to significantly reduce consumption due to heating premises by dividing the wastage of buildings by 4 while increasing comfort. As a result of this fact it has limited its energy dependence and has not increased the energy consumption of this sector, despite the increase in the equipment built. This policy has enabled France to favourably position itself in relation to the Kyoto agreements and their follow-up actions.

5.3 Overall environmental policy

5.3.1 Natural Resources

The use of recycled products for the manufacture of glass mineral wool decreases the need for natural resources thereby reducing the quantitative impact of being put into landfill. It is the same for surfacing usually associated with mineral wool: kraft paper. The packaging materials are partly composed of recycled materials.

Knauf Insulation SUPAFIL CAVITY WALL 034 9 January 2013 22

5.3.2 Emissions in the air and water

The insulation of buildings allows heating needs to be significantly reduced while increasing comfort and by way of a consequence the energy consumption of heated or air-conditioned buildings as well as the pollution which is correlated to it. The emissions from an insulated building in accordance with the regulations on energy efficiency are at least 4 to 6 times lower than that of a non-insulated building.

This is particularly the case of CO2 emissions.

5.3.3 Waste

Mineral wools are fully recyclable and production waste for the greater majority of it is recycled on site. For site waste, structured economic circuits do not exist to date for the recovery of mineral wool. The waste from mineral wool sites are classified under heading 17 06 04 and are admitted in Class 2 Industrial Landfills. In the framework of this data sheet the waste from end-of-life during the demolition has been regarded as being put in a landfill with a average transport of 30 km.

6. ANNEX: CHARACTERISATION OF DATA FOR CALCULATING THE LIFE CYCLE INVENTORY

(LCI) This annex is the outcome of the report accompanying the declaration (see Introduction)

6.1 Definition of the LCA system (Life Cycle Analysis)

Description of the flow taken into account in the life cycle of the product.

6.1.1 Steps and flow included

Production: The modelling of the production step takes into account: the extraction of raw materials, the production of mineral wool, electricity production. the extraction, transport and combustion of natural gas and other fuels, the production of packaging, the transport of all raw materials. Transport: the modelling of the transport step takes into account the production and combustion of diesel. By performing a weighted average by the production of each site, the transport characteristics of the product are as follows: average distance: 460 km, actual load: 6.4 t empty return 4% The end of the life of the packaging used for packaging the product is accounted for in this step.

Implementation: The modelling takes account of the transport and the landfill of falls. The drop rate is equal to: 7% for impermeability reading products, 5% for lining systems with plasterboard and soft ceilings, 2% for roller, flexible or semi-rigid panels and coatwool type products. The drop rate for this product is 2%. The impacts of packaging for wrapping the product have been accounted for during this step in the life of the product. Life in work: No environmental impact is associated with this step.

End of life: Knauf Insulation wanted to assume the worst case scenario for the landfill, the flows are not all representative of leachates related to the landfill of mineral wool. The modelling of the step of the end of life takes into account: transporting waste from its place of life in work until their end-of-life place, landfilling waste.

Knauf Insulation SUPAFIL CAVITY WALL 034 9 January 2013 24

6.1.2 Omitted flows

Standard NF P 01-010 allows the following flows to be omitted from the system's boundaries: - lighting, heating and cleaning of the workshops. - the administrative department, - the transportation of employees, - the manufacture of the production tool and transport systems (machines, lorries, etc.) Due to a lack of data, the emissions of the product into the air at the implementation and life in work stage are not taken into account.

6.1.3 Rule for demarcating boundaries

Standard NF P 01-010 has set the cut-off threshold at 98% according to paragraph 4.5.1 of the standard. In the context of this declaration, the percentage of recovered flows is more than 98%. The flows not taken into account in the results tables are those of steps prior to the manufacture of the product
